The word for Lakshwadweep is ‘untouched” .................. no vehicles, no restaurants, just the sun sand sea and great marine life…...

Its got everything …the hills, the sea, the reefs, the weather…......the mix of people …...........man I could happily live out my days there…...

One of the 4 main trading cities of ancient china ..all thats left is the old ancestors temple…a must visit.

Very friendly ppl, .....they followed me all over the place smiling ..(sigh) hadn’t seen an Indian before I guess.

My first visit to mailand china …...And I’m going back!

Great handicraft shopping too…...........

Untouched, poor, beautiful, backward, temples, culture, history…..

not many people go there but those who do wonyt be disappointed.

The guest list of the E&O reads like a whos who of the arts….this is an old stately colonial hotel it is a living breathing museum and is right up there in the list of the best hotels of the world.

Huge suites (very affordable too)...butler service…but its the ambience which provides the magic!

one of the great train journeys of the world up there with the Orient Express and The Trans Siberian Express

careful about the sandflies…take lots of insect repellent

Always travel in winter…!

If you like palaces, old Indian princes and nobility, deserts, camels, culture and colour…this is the place to go to!

Ladies please try and not travel alone in India ….may not be safe….

Both Bhutan and Sikkim are untouched. lovely people and unsurpassed natural beauty….the last shangri las of the world…..

The Wats (buddhist temples) take your breath away…
